Why do you want to? If you prefer movies about likable characters overcoming challenges and setbacks but eventually prevailing due to their core of goodness, then there are plenty of great movies to watch. This is just not Godard.

Well, people whose opinions I respect say they're great movies and there's a lot to appreciate about them, so I suppose I'm wondering if there's a way I could learn to enjoy them more. The responses here have been helpful!
I really enjoy Koyaanisqatsi but I can understand how someone else might not like it at first, but perhaps enjoy it more after the theme and intended meaning become more clear.

Eh, “moping insufferable jerk” and “good, likable overcomer” can be thought of as ends on a potentially broad spectrum of character types. Perhaps the commenter doesn’t care for either.
